100% Biden owns this. His handlers right now are looking for any way to coordinate with the state run media to blame someone else. Give it a few days and they will have their narrative down pat!
It is hard to spin this when he publicly assured us just two weeks ago that what is currently happening, will never occur.
Why are none of you blaming the Afghan army that we trained and left thousands of dollars of equipment to? They literally did nothing to protect their own country.
Actually, we're not, and that's part of the problem.
Biden can probably be impeached if any of the military weapons left behind are used in future attacks on the U.S.
Honestly, we should have just wired the buildings and surrounding area with explosives, and when the termites came home, sent them to their final resting place.
2 Biden already previously said the withdrawal plan was 100% his and not Trump's. Will the mainstream propaganda media really help him bury that comment?
3 Biden could have changed anything Trump left him.
The bad withdrawal was Biden, and the "art of the bad deal" was Trump.
"Both sides" should have, and could have, utilized the CIA, to confirm whether the Taliban was holding their end. They both didn't! Now, here we are.....!
Reagan's "Trust, but verify" should've been applied, here!
In regard to foreign affairs, POTUS has all the power. Of course, he is dependent on the CIA and the military brass to provide intelligence and recommendations.
How do you know what Osama bin Laden wanted? He was hiding in Pakistan while Obama was President.
You don't seem to understand the difference between the Taliban and al-Qaeda.
If Trump has been re-elected, he would have relied on the same intelligence that Biden was given.
We stayed in Afghanistan for 20 years because every President since Bush was told the same thing. Each President pushed withdrawal down the road. Now we're blaming Biden for having the guts to pull the plug.
90%? How did you come up with that number? George H. W. Bush had plenty of actual combat experience. His son was in the Air National Guard. Donald Trump was a cadet at the New York Military Academy. I'm not sure a few years in the military makes that much of a difference.
1) Wrong.
2) I don't know what Trump would have done. You don't either, so don't act like you do.
Mehh. There was nothing Biden could do here. Taliban were going to take over whether it was now or 30 years from now. That place has always been a lost cause
Wow! Your comment is totally not partisan or biased or anything like that.............
President Biden screwed the pooch on this one. There's no if's and's or but's on this. It was time to leave, but President Biden's approach reeks of incompetence. President Trump didn't pull all of our troops out at once, leaving a power vacuum while our embassies had yet to be fully cleared. That's the main difference.
I guess we'll never know how President Trump truly would have handled this, but it cannot have been worse than President Biden's approach.
Hahahaha! Seriously? The Trump administration couldn’t manage anything with the son in law Kushner rolling out “policies”.
The Afghanis did not want to fight for their country. We were DONE. Period.
It wasn’t going to be pretty regardless. They fight for their family and their tribe. That’s it. They’re going to continue to fight amongst themselves like they have done for centuries.
Seems we'r left quite a few for the terrorists to use, though.
Lol I was gonna go there but I was not motivated enough
